I pulled out the short circuit plug and cranked the motor.. oil was coming up. I put it back together without the ball and spring and ran it for about 30 seconds and I was getting good oil pressure, same as on the oil filter housing. I then put the ball and spring back in and took it for a...

Riffraff spacer

Looking at this flow chart the short circuit valve looks like its the culprit. Number 2 is the value

I just pulled the plug, got the spring out. I'm still trying to get the ball out. What should I do after I get it out? If there is something lodged in there I want to be able to get it out.

Any ideas on what could be making the oil pressure low at the HPOP res and pressures at oil filter housing are good?

lol... I really doubt I left anything in a port, I just don't want to rule it out. I think I have the plumbing to the HPOP spacer wrong. I think the IPR dump should be in the center port and the oil pressure sensor on the right.

Can’t remember exactly.. I believe I was installing a Melling LPOP, HPOP’s and turbo. I just pulled the HPOP reservoir and it’s all clear.

It there where I can check for a restriction first that is easy to get to? Any ideas how to get the pick up screen unclogged with compressed air or would the engine need to come out?

Does that sound like a possibility from the symptoms?

Im running Rotella T4 15-40. I changed the oil last night, I drained it into a large commercial kitchen cone oil filter to see if there was any debris in it. This piece of paper towel came out. I checked the pressure relief valve on the oil filter housing and it was fully closed. I hooked up...

Just checked the oil pressure while driving and it never went over 35 psi. Pressure was dropping to about 25 psi getting up to speed 1/2 throttle. WOT it was tanking, coming to a stop it dropped to about 10 psi and was about ready to die. I let it idle for a bit once stopped to see if it would...

Ok, i'll order in a new pigtail. Fuel pressure is holding steady at 60 psi. Oil pressure on the HPOP reservoir is 35 psi at idle.. brought the rpm's to 2,000 while parked and it dropped to 28 psi
